This man and his party are leading us to total socioeconomic catastrophe down the path already trod by many nations before us. The immorality, laziness and complete godlessness of the people leads them to a government they deserve.

"Our economic success has never come from the top down," said Obama. "It comes from the middle out.It comes from the bottom up."

A zero substance statement. Meanwhile Rick Snyder says Detroit isn't getting a bailout but he is working to give them a hand up. Things like a second bridge will ease the trade bottleneck and bring trucking, warehousing and other freight related business to Detroit. The big difference is that Detroit won't have uncontrolled access to the money.

It sounds eerily reminiscent of Starnesville.

Obama thinks what all socialists think: there’s an inexhaustible supply of money that never runs out. All that has to be done is to make the hoarders and stealers of the gigantic money supply (the evil rich i.e. the producers) give more of their ill-gotten gains to the people (Dem constituents i.e. the takers) the Dems deem need the loot the most.

When the majority of Americans WANT America to become Detroit, there is nothing you can do. Even if the Americans who want this don’t have any idea what they’re asking for.

Oh, okay.
The next time I see destitute, down-in-the-gutter alcoholic passed out in the street next to the curb about to drown in his own vomit, I'll ask him for a job.

“. . . and disabled children will not get health care.” . . .
Yes, they will. What’s breaking the USA Entitlement Bank is the cash payment of $700 a month Supplemental Security Income (aka federal welfare from general funds, not from social security money). Mind you, this $700 every month is in addition to full medicaid. What’s the extra money for? So their “single” mom can: 1. not work, even though the child is at school; 2. support the whole family with the SSI, plus Section 8 and food stamps, of course, all of which have no work requirements like TANF is supposed to. Why are we paying $700 a month? Entitlement reform should start with SSI for children who function well enough for the parent to be able to work.

The only problem with this analysis is that Bankrupt Detroit is looking to Obama to bail them out. Who’s going to bail out Obama?

Obama said in Michigan that if the federal government does not take more money away from people who have earned it.

Then why is increasing taxes on the top earners?.

Amazing. Apparently Detroit is now 18th in population size and smaller than Columbus, OH and Ft. Worth, TX. It will soon be passed by El Paso and Memphis (which have already passed Boston in population).

Maybe Detroit and Columbus should swap baseball teams.?

Hard to believe that just fifty years ago when I went to boot camp the boys from Detroit proudly said so as one might say,”I am royalty”. They were very disdainful of us poor Southern boys.
